scheduled reprinting:
Privacy Act Statement
Collection and Use of Personal Information
Public Law 110-328 and section 1631(e) of the Social Security Act, as amended,
authorize us to collect this information. The information you provide will be used to
determine if you have made a good faith effort to pursue U.S. Citizenship, so that we may
make a decision on additional Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits.
The information you furnish on this form is voluntary. However, failure to provide the
requested information will prevent us from making a timely decision on your benefits.
We generally use the information you supply for the purpose of determining eligibility
for benefits. However, we may use it for the administration and integrity of Social
Security programs. We may also disclose information to another person or to another
agency in accordance with approved routine uses, which include but are not limited to the
following:
1. To enable a third party or an agency to assist Social Security in establishing
rights to Social Security benefits and/or coverage, including the U.S.
Citizenship and Immigration Service in order to verify information provided;
2. To comply with Federal laws requiring the release of information from Social
Security records (e.g., to the Government Accountability Office and
Department of Veterans’ Affairs);
3. To make determinations for eligibility in similar health and income
maintenance programs at the Federal, state, and local level; and
4. To facilitate statistical research, audit or investigative activities necessary to
assure the integrity of Social Security programs.
We may also use the information you provide in computer matching programs. Matching
programs compare our records with records kept by other Federal, state, or local
government agencies. Information from these matching programs can be used to establish
or verify a person’s eligibility for Federally funded or administered benefit programs and
for repayment of payments or delinquent debts under these programs.
Additional information regarding this form, routine uses of information, and our
programs and systems, is available on-line at www.ssa.gov or at your local Social
Security office.
